Balconies, Concert Hall, Palau de la Musica Catalana, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain

Seats on the first floor balcony in the Concert Hall, seating 2015 people and illuminated entirely during the day by windows and a huge stained glass drip-shaped skylight by Rigalt Granell & Cia, at the Palau de la Musica Catalana, built 1905-8 and designed by the Catalan Modernist architect Lluis Domenech i Montaner, 1850-1923, in Casc Antic, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The huge arch in front of the stage was sculpted by Didac Masana and Pau Gargallo, and around the stage are figures of the muses sculpted by Eusebi Arnau with mosaic work by Lluis Bru. The hall was built for the Orfeo Catala choral society in Catalan Modernist style, with art nouveau inspired organic forms and much attention to decorative detail. The concert hall was listed in 1997 as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
